after a job you really want.
Rachel: Well then how come you're still at a job that you hate, I mean why
don't you quit and get `the fear'?
[Chandler and Joey both laugh]

here.

do? Rachel's all like, "I love you and, and let's work on this." And
all I can think about is, "What is she gonna do? What is she gonna say?"
when I tell her what I did.
Chandler: Well, before we answer that, I think we should address the
more important question: how dumb are you?
Ross: What?! Look, we're trying to rebuild a relationship here, right.
How am I supposed to do that here, without being totally honest with
each other?
Joey: Look, Ross look, I'm on board about this totally honesty thing,
I am, just not about stuff that's gonna get you in trouble.

unfinished business she might have had, like any reason she'd be hanging
around?

think of is that she always used to say that before she died, she wanted to
see everything.

Mr. Adelman: Oh, wait, I remember, she also said she wanted to sleep with
me one last time.
